He describes to WJBF’s Barclay Bishop what he saw and felt.***

“We heard two really loud booms. One of them you could feel it shake the ground and hear like the wood creaking on houses. It was absolutely, I have never felt anything like that in my life.”

Bolgla says watching this unfold gave him even more confidence in our American military.
